Things to know about Race Face

Let's face it, bike parts always turn out better when someone is designing them who knows what they’re supposed to survive. In the bike community, we call that a "rider-owned business", it’s a company that is run by bikers and especially the development department consists of people who like to go the whole nine yards every now and then. And that’s what it’s like with Race Face. The founders of the brand turned bucketsful of components to junk before they came up with the idea to turn the bicycle market upside-down with products that were able to last longer.

Shore to the core

... is the brand's slogan, and it explains what it's all about. From the coastal trails around Vancouver directly to the hard core of the MTB community, that's the plan!

Race Face makes durable bike parts

The basic idea has not changed until today and even now Race Face is still a “rider owned company”. All of the employees at Race Face are mountain bikers, at the same time the list of team riders is rather impressive: Wade Simmons, Mike Hopkins, Remy Metailler, Reed Boggs and Paul Basagoita are just some of the big names. However, Race Face sponsoring well-known pros isn’t just a way of advertising; all the team riders are first and foremost test pilots. Only the components that survive their rides make their way into the bike stores.

The influence and feedback of the crew riders guarantees the high quality and optimum function of each Race Face component. In addition to that, Race Face is known as one of the manufacturers of bicycle parts that put great emphasis on style. In our Race Face brand store you’ll not only find high-quality bike parts, their chainrings or stems also come in many different colors. Nevertheless, Race Face’s team riders are of course also very successful in international competitions. Teams like the Cube Global Squad and the Devinci Global Racing Team, or the GT Factory Racing Team and the Cube Action Team ride and win with Race Face bike parts.
